Fiera Milano and Ifuori Salone
This is a list of some of the shows that at Hidden Art we always liked to visit over the many years that we have exhibited in Milan, the last years in the Salone Satelite.
It has also some information on where to get further information such as the all important Interni Guide. Much if this can now be downloaded. Cameron PR (@CamronPR) has also published a very comprehensive Milan Pack which you will find here bit.ly/HAannl.
Enjoy!
